Bubble And Squeak Recipe

	Chiki_minki / All my dishes 1 year, 3 months ago This is pure English comfort food, mention it to us and look for the wistful misty eyed look. The odd name comes from the noise it makes cooking. Usually served with cold meat (left over from a roast) and a fried egg on top Prep:5m Cook:30m Servings:4	Chiki_minki

Ingredients

A heap of cold mashed potatoes

Cold cooked green vegetables - sprouts and cabbage are most traditional but anything will do

Fried onion

Pretty much anything savoury you have that needs using up, meat juices from a roast

Any seasoning you like

Beef dripping (the fat that drips from beef) - don't panic if you don't have any

Directions

Throw everything except the dripping into a bowl and mix together

Heat the dripping or oil (not olive oil please!) in a frying (saute) pan

Chuck the bubble in the pan and squish into a big pattie.

This is where opinion divides, some people like to stir occasionally so the crusty bits from the bottom get mixed in, other prefer a good think crispy crust then turn over (flip onto a plate, then back in the pan) to get a crust on the other side

If you are feeling posh, you can make individual bubbles using metal rings.

Its cooked when its hot, bubbling and squeaking

It may sound gross but this is proper old school food that has recently had the Ramsey relaunch, you might just like it!

Ohhh my! I love this...my mother used to do this, frying hers in a hot cast iron skillet with bacon drippings! Hers would get a good crust on both sides, then we'd eat it with toasted leftover cornbread! YUUUUUM!--Kn0x--

Hi Turtle, I'm not sure how well known Gordon Ramsey outside UK but in recent years he has been going back to this kind of traditional food. Things like steak and kidney pudding, pigs trotter and bubble made resurgence in top resaurants around that time and can now be found in every gastropub. Hence a Ramsey relaunch for something that big Gordon has cooked. Mx

Hi Knox, my mum is from the both side crusty but my partner is from mixed up crust (yuk!) so we do argue about, though he has come to agree that my way is better! Mx

Hi Greekgirrl, I have to admit that my mum cooked this in more fat that I use in a year! Another confession, unless its been a really bad day I use a smear of oil in a non-stick pan but its really not the same. Mx

I like the fried crust on corned beef hash or hash brown potatoes, so this B & S fried crispy sounds great! I'll have to try it! Thanks.

My Grandmother who was Irish/English always made this after our traditional Easter dinner of red potatoes, cabbage and boiled ham. I remember her making it in a large frying pan. It was just delicious! She always added a little mustard to it. It is definitely a comfort food in our family!
